“Let us celebrate environmentalism with art, music, fashion and expression,” said Donald Cassel, owner of Darkhorse Distribution/Grind King and licensee of Dogtown Skateboards. “The Westside has evolved into a progressive community that is becoming more aware and supportive of the positive movement that may make a difference in cleaning up our planet.”

In addition, a silent auction and mannequin display will offer attendees the chance to take home some of the hottest green fashions.

Rooting and Rising Environmental Art ShowFrom 4 p.m. to 1:30 a.m., the Venice Contemporary art studios will feature some of the regions most celebrated artists. Two rooms will feature the yin and yang of the global environment. Featured artist Wes Humpston, Dogtown’s creator, will showcase his never before seen collection.

Expression Celebration and PartyAfter 9 p.m., the event will morph into an art, music and expression celebration featuring live DJ music, acoustic performances and live dancers and entertainers. The venue will be transformed into a creative and surreal interactive environment and landscape.

Surfrider Foundation’s Ballona Wetland ProjectProceeds from the event will benefit the Surfrider Foundation, an international non-profit environmental organization dedicated to the protection of our coastal environment. Donations will go directly to the Surfrider Foundation South Bay Chapter for the Ballona Wetlands Project located in West Los Angeles. Surfrider supports restoring natural processes in wetlands such as the Ballona Wetlands to help resolve polluted runoff reaching our local beaches, threatening human health and a thriving marine environment. To meet this ambitious goal, Surfrider is working towards creating a network of “treatment wetlands” along the Ballona Creek.
